In the past week, a White pastor was shot in the face with a pepper ball and a White reporter was handcuffed and detained by federal officers.

Congratulations, America.

Everybody's Black & Brown now.

Have any of y'all heard about Larry Bushart Jr.? I ask, because I hadn't.

Watch this video and catch up on what's being done to him over a meme he posted.

He wasn't fired. He wasn't "canceled". He was arrested. Based on lies.

We should be outraged by this.

This guy knew. It's why he said what he said.

Many people know, and will speak out against injustice.

As for this dude, he knew the disparity, and didn't like being treated as such.

I hope eventually all whites understand what Black and Brown people have endured for centuries in our country.

Illegal immigration isn't a new problem. The natives used to call it 'white people.'

2/ South Dakota’s designation of Native American Day stems back to a decision by Gov. George Mickelson in the late 1980s to seek "reconciliation” between Native Americans and whites after historically bad relations.

1/ The traditional Columbus Day holiday has been celebrated since 1892 — four centuries after Columbus arrived in what is now America. However, the holiday has been criticized in recent decades for Christopher Columbus' treatment of Native Americans. #SheShed #Pinks

KNOW who you are dealing with by the type of mask they wear

Not All Masks Are Equal

PROTECTION

Sickening to think in the 1970s the US Navy continued to be a disgusting, racist institution. Somehow im not surprised, another example of the US military treated African American war heroes like shit was the Harlem Hellfighters following WW1. Absolutely disgraceful

Nobody!

This guy thought he was privileged because he's White.

This didn't happen under Trump, but he knew the disparate treatment that law enforcement doles out towards Black people.
